Comment on Ask HN: Great maker projects for 8th grade kids and above?parent

Comments

We did this and our girls enjoyed them, but I found it doesn't really teach much. It's mostly a "can you follow simple instructions" task.

I feel like having them complete simple breadboarding / soldering projects where they are actually seeing how things work at a pretty low level and developing a physical skill was more valuable - or get them going on simple Rasp Pi projects if they have an interest in programming.
